Brisbane Christmas tree lighting 2016 | Lifestyle

Since young, I always watch western movies & I've learned that Christmas is always a big thing in the western countries (Australia as well). It is officially a month to go for Christmas! YAY!!( ok, to be exact is 29 days) Although Australia season is going into Summer, but this does not stop the excitement for the locals. Cause i came from a 4 Summer season country, Malaysia, this year's Christmas is nothing different from my country. I bet there are lots of not local Asians are going to have their 1st summer Christmas ~ especially my friends, since they come from a 4 seasoned country

Lets enjoy the countdown of the lighting event. 

p/s: Sorry for the out of focus, i think my camera unable to detect the sudden lighting

This is the 1st time I joined my friend to go for a lighting event. Although the schedule was set to be lighting up at 6:30pm, the lighting up was delayed to 7pm, for unknown reason but probably it was because the sun set late yesterday. 

Before light up

After light up

We waited for an hour for this lighting event and it was quite disappointing to me (like just a lil bit). I thought there were more things to just the light up of the Christmas tree, but it was literally JUST the lighting up.... Ok to be fair, there are Christmas carolling going on the stage area. It is still not bad, I mean, we non-locals should be there to experience their culture right? Well this is part of Brisbane's main event of the year, so I think it was worth the go for an experience. 

Thanks to my buddies for the invite, I enjoyed alot of crap talk with them. I also enjoyed laughing at how santa sang "Rudolph the red nose reindeer" with his broken singing & out of tune singing X'D! A great day to spend with friends.

Some information:

This is the largest Christmas tree in Brisbane, it is also the 1st solar powered Christmas tree ( huge thumbs up for eco-friendly) The solar panel is placed on the star, top of the tree, providing power to 1.5 meters of LED lights that are surrounding the tree. 

A Time-Lapse video from Visit Brisbane to show how the tree was build.

Hope all of you have a great time preparing Christmas!

how do I start?

Apparently I'm in my Summer's break while waiting for my internship here in Australia. I am really very bored~
Okay okay~ This time i must swear to myself to blog every once a week. I know some people say that I should blog like a hobby, whenever I feel like too, just blog. But I feel that I should do something consistantly. I've started blogging but i stopped due to my college work, I started youtubing but i stopped due to my uni work. Nothing is consistant.

There's this one thing that actually part of the reason that I paused all these blogging & youtubing is actually, its shy to say cause i'm a grown adult.... "I'm embarassed." I'm embarassed of looking myself in video, thinking that my topic for my video is not good enough. I kept thinking which ever blogging/ youtubing, my topic isnt good enough and I'm embarassed of myself.(yes part of me is a perfectionist)

So I thought I should contiue my blog again. This time I must be Very determained and consistant... I believe I said this things many times, but I really need free time(from homeworks and assignments) and motivation.

Will try to have a better topic next blog~  okay I promise It will be a better blog post than this~
also I will finish up the renovation of my blog~

Reviving dead blog with Althea Korea

I gotta slap myself awake for actually leaving my blog hanging for a year~ oh my god~~ I think I gotta put up a self reminder + Motivation on my wall to push myself & update often~

Will continue my blog back with my experience with Althea. Ever since Althea had launched, I've been always visiting their webpage, but during that time I see no purpose to get any of their products. After I've went to Australia(study purpose), I realized that Asian products in Aussie is very very expensive, I couldn't even get my hands on them because of the price. Once I knew I'm coming back, I went to the page to get some essential beauty products I can bring back to Aussie.


Products sold in Althea are 100% Authentic products from Korea so do not worry if you would get a fake product as it is 100% safe to use. Not only that, Their price are cheaper than retail price! so why pay more when you can save more & still get the same product.

Because i got it during the Ramadan season, their box is in Ramadan theme, which also makes a good present if you are getting for someone during the Festive season.

Their packaging is very neat ,all items are wrapped with bubble wrap to assure that the original packaging of the items are not smashed and of course to make sure the items wont move around during the shipment. They event included sample & some voucher to give out during Hari Raya~

These are the items i got from Althea and it only cost RM300 for ALL OF THESE! worth it! I will do a full review for each product soon.

Do check out Althea.kr
